Rigel is approx 860 ly away.
Away, at around 18 km/s.
Rigel is approximately 860 light years away from Earth.
Despite being more intrinsically luminous than Sirius, Rigel appears dimmer in the sky due to its greater distance from Earth compared to Sirius. The brightness of a star as seen from Earth is influenced by both its intrinsic luminosity and its distance from us.

Rigel is approx 860 ly away.
It is 260 +/- 20 parsecs away.
Approx 260 +/- 20 parsecs.
No. Rigel is much farther away than Uranus. Uranus is in our Solar System.
Rigel, which is located in the Orion constellation, is approximately 860 light-years away from Earth. Altair, on the other hand, is a star in the Aquila constellation and is around 16.7 light-years away from us.
Away, at around 18 km/s.
Rigel is approximately 860 light years away from Earth.
It probably does, but it is too far away for our telescopes to see that level of detail.
Distances between stars are not measured in miles: that is like measuring the distance from the Earth to the Sun in thousandths of an inch! However, since you asked, Rigel is approx 5 quadrillion miles away.
